Raphael Tuck and his wife founded the company in London, England in the 1866. In the United States it was the Stecher Lithograph Company of Rochester, New York. The North American companies cornered the postcard market during World War I due to the simple fact that German postcard companies were prevented from the major markets due to the war embargo. When World War I ended the major competitors that had been on the losing side never recovered to regain their market share. 1930’s postcard of The Lake In The Clouds – Banff National Park. Sadly, the postcard according to a recent article is on a severe decline. Due to the internet and the high cost of postage sales and the mailing of postcards has reached a new low. The US Postal Service estimated that about 1 billion postcards were sent in 2013. That is a decline of 4.4 million from 2012. Nancy Rosen, President of the Ephemera Society of America attributes the decline to several factors. “Social media definitely decreases the number of paper missives being sent. Penmanship skills have diminished. Even sending postcards from travel locales is getting to be a challenge as they don’t seem readily available. Postcards are an artifact of the past, when they were a primary vehicle for communications among friends, lovers and relatives.” A 1914 postcard of the Royal Medical Corps in battle. With the decline of sending postcards it becomes even more interesting to the collector to attend shows, yard sales, flea markets, second hand stores and even check stores that are closing. Not as many are being sent, but in the past 160 years the supply and variety for collectors is endless.
